INFLUENCE OF THE CITY-FORMING BASE ON THE SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT OF ULYANOVSK

The city of Ulyanovsk has been developing for a long time as a major transport and industrial center. The study presents a retrospective analysis of the formation of industrial territories, as well as the influence of the city-forming base on the spatial development of the city. Over time, with the development of trade and technology, the industrial complexes of Ulyanovsk became one of the key factors in the urban development and economic growth of the region. The study is based on the analysis of the historical evolution of the industrial development of the city of Ulyanovsk, the established "gray zones" and their influence on the architectural and urban structure of the city. The study analyzed archival and cartographic materials, conducted a retrospective and cartographic analysis. The analysis of cartographic materials made it possible to identify six main stages of the spatial development of the territory of Ulyanovsk, depending on the dynamics of the urban development influence of industry: The first stage (from the moment the fortress of Sinbirsk was founded until 1898); the second stage (1898-1941); the third stage (1941-1976); fourth stage (1976-1991); fifth stage (1991-2010); sixth period (2010 – present). Prospective directions for renovation of industrial territories and complexes are proposed: preservation of production with modernization and technological processes, partial refunctionalization with inclusion of new functions and adaptation for modern use, complete refunctionalization of territories.
